Fremantle will face Geelong at GMHBA Stadium on Saturday after coming off a 29-point win against Carlton in round 21.
Here’s who could come in for the clash.
Nat Fyfe
The Fremantle captain faces a fitness test to return from a hamstring injury that has kept the midfielder out since round 15. Fyfe will train on Thursday and if he gets through, he’ll be likely to get on the plane that afternoon.
Bailey Banfield
Banfield was a late omission against Carlton due to team balance and is a good chance to return. The 20-year-old midfielder has played all but one game in his debut season, averaging 15 disposals and four tackles per game.
Ethan Hughes
Hughes has played 10 WAFL games this season and the defender has impressed with an average of 21 disposals and seven marks per game. Hughes last played for Fremantle against Essendon in round 18, where he collected 13 disposals and took four marks.
Darcy Tucker
Tucker missed Fremantle’s clash with Carlton with a minor back injury but is once again available for selection this week. Tucker has averaged 14.5 disposals this season with his season-high coming against Hawthorn in round 19 with 22 disposals going with his five marks.
Brandon Matera
Omitted for Fremantle’s clash with Carlton, Matera will be in the selection mix to return against the Cats. The small forward season has slowed after a promising start to 2018, where he kicked goals in each of Fremantle’s opening six games of the season. In his most recent appearance, he kicked 2.1 and collected 17 disposals against West Coast.
